Untrue: Kamala's husband on claim he slapped ex-girlfriend in 2012
US Vice-President and Democratic Presidential nominee Kamala Harris' husband Doug Emhoff refuted allegations that he had slapped his ex-girlfriend during a trip to Cannes Film Festival in 2012, calling them "untrue". "Any suggestion that he would or has ever hit a woman is false," Emhoff's representative said. Emhoff was accused of hitting his ex-partner for flirting with a valet worker.
